INDIANA JVSTHE.

Judge Dnnhiun recrnlly aaid that, within four yeara, there hiv«* i»ern »»ix-tef-n en»«-8 of iyncliirg in hi* JndMal circnit. more than the whole number of legal executions In the entire Stsite since ita admisHion into the Union.

This is evidence of terrible lawlessness and general lurk of confidence in th«* courts of the State, yet it do«is not i!|u«trnte fuiiv how lax 'ind uncertain juHti«*e commonly is in Indiana.

Our judges are th" «r»ntures »f party. They have been rcgul rly nominated by P'rty conv ntioua, and all who desiro to continue on the bench look lorw.«rd to a political canvaeun as a ueci-sa iry preliinihary.

Our prosecutors are chosen from the youngest and most Inexperienced members of the bar.

Our sheriffs and deputies are, Invariably, scheming politicians. The bar is worst of all. In every county seat of the State there are usually wo or more lawyers of prominence and some 'lines of distinguished ability. These leaders, combined, are as potent as lords of the feudal ^lays. If they have ever failed lo secure acquittal or light sentence for a criminal |xssxscd of money, or political influence, the ease is not known to the majority of the people. There area hun dred subterfuges by which they preserve their clients Inun the clutch of justice. There is the picked jury there is tbe briiw-beatingaiid insultingofwitnesses, a pr.ctleo that will murk the legal profession as infamous so long as it is continued, and the eouris as weak and iml*cil" which permit it there are specious ind formidable influencesbrouirht to be:ir upon the jury there is antagonistic evidence to la- gotten out of the way. In case of an adverse decisicn, then'are motions lor new tri .l, change of venue, and flual wearing out of the proHceution.

If a pofcr and friendless creature steals a loaf of bread, or a oalr ol shoes, or the money to purchase either, he receives a sentence to tbe penitentiary as certainly as that he is brought to trial. Of ten murderers who command money or Influence, nine will be acquitted. We will make local illustrations Edward Ilennessy, who had money and strong friends, kil ed, brutally and causelessly, a poor creature. Ileum say was acquitted. Morgan and Stephens, both friendless and money leas, murdered men. One was hutu(. and the other was sentenned to Imprisonment for life. Dr. Collinga, a |o©«l politician, has lawn for years a terror to the people of the southern p,rt of this county. He haa attempted ttturder, and done »I1 kind* of outra l4*ott* things. He h•«« been before the courts repeatedly without conviction. Is there a man or woman of intelligence in the county who does not know th Justice would have sent him to pris ahead of the petty thieves who an* hurried off no unceremoniously

Our judges are not especially to bl mie. When ablerouneel is procured, a nun* is usually so presented to tue |ury aa lo baffle all the efforts of tbe bf*iH*h to aeciire jo at lee. The Jury Ik aup|Nioed to be tbe bulwark of tree in at it til Ions. In its practical wot kings in tbla State, it la tbe weakest feature of ottr whole system of a at tee. Twelve men of meagre edacatlon,*uaually pooafwied of oenoe inaatteient for tbe comprehension of the simplest argument, are judgeo of tbo law and of tbe evi"dene*," They are swayed e«aily by tbo eloquoneo of a favorite politician, by flattery to which they are little ooed. or by appeals to tholr prejodicea and paaalona.

any oourt in the 8tate abeald allow itself to be imposed upon by this class of public mendioanta. Them should be few excuses received iroin reputable and intelligent citizens snmmoned to serve upon juries. We must face squarely this proposition, that citiaenghip imposes duties while it secures rights.

The evils we have mentioned cry aloud. Justice does not live among us. It is not obsolete it bus never existed. We prate of the grandeur of free institutions, yet there is not a town or hamlet of Western Europe in which honest citizens are not more fully protected, and crime more certainly punished thin in Terre-Haute. These are not idle words they are truths.

WOMF.N VOTING JN COLORADO. An election was held in Greeley,Colorado, on the 2nd iust., to recommend a suitable person for the position of Postmaster of that place. As all citizens were interested, it was very wisely determined to allow women to vote. This arr.iiigeinent would not have suited II. ii., after whom the town was named, but the colonists have minds ol their own. This WHS probably the tirst election h^ld in a highly civilized community of this country in which idies were permitted to vote. The Greeley Tribune tells us bow the women used tbe ballot "Tlicciiu-eot woman's suffrage In Greeley hiut Mime ndvMitie, but piobiibi.v not nmt# than In any other community *Jf like Intelligence, iior has tin re been any s|ecial agitatio of 1 he subject. That women proI erl.v might vote 111 ar. election lor Po-l-ina-ter, seemed clear enough, and both candidate- iiitreed i:ieir vote.- bliould be received. Perhaps ilit- ek-ciion was of greater interest for tills reason, ami more male vole- were polled than on any previou-oc-casion. I'be nuinlierof women who voted was UK. During mo.-t of the time Colony liall was well till d. and every moment 01«rand (julei prevalhd. When a group ol ladles Hpiiearcd at the door, the house became -Hem, men polit-ly stepped n-skle, ulitl all were tuinetl upon the new partnerIn lie political tie id.

TIIK Japanese are borrowing a good many of our customs, including our revenue customs also our style of farming as taught by that eminent and successful agriculturist.HoraceGtee'ey. Now, we would only show friendly sjvrit and neighborly confidence, »by adopting sonite of ihe customs of'ltfe Japs. For instance, dishoneat officials of.I.tp:in take great pleasure, when their peculations are discovered, in committing hari-kiri. Wouldn't it be the neat thing for Mr. Tweed, Mr. Conoily, Mr. Ilall, Mr. Ham Conner, Mr. Dick Hrigiit, and other gentlemen who have not been able to re id their vouchers clear, to disr tnbowel themselves after tbe manner of a tpancso trea&ury thief.

EbSKWHMtK 111 ibis issue may be found an extract from a very interesting letter written by Mr. M. I). Con way, London correspondent of the Cincinnati Coinmerci il. giving an interesting uecouut of a sj»ee made by a Hindoo Prince in I^ondon concerning Christianity in India. This Prince makes the very startling assertion that, notwithstanding a century's missionary work, the number of educated natives who have become converts to the evangelical faith can be counted on the number of one's fingf'rs. The reason is plainly given. Christianity with its medley of distjordant dogmas and theories seems nonsense lo tiie learned men of India.

PARADE OF THH INTERNATIONAL. The Governor of New York and tbe anthoritiea of tbe city perpetrated an outrage on Sunday which baa hardly been eqnalltd in all tbe annala of moral 00 ward ice in America.

The members of the International 80cietv of New York proposed to honor tbe memory of Rossel, and other dead commuuisis, by a public parade on Sunday. Tbe pfocession was not large

terfered. disjjersed the essembly and arrested six leaders whe were confined in tbe Station House until Monday morning.

While the autocrats of the old world are devising plans for the throttling of the International, the officials of tbe first city of America have put their hands upon the throat of this Society, They name it a crime to show a red feather in honor of Rowel, the most heroic spirit of all the martyrs furnished by the Republican principle to France.

The plea that the procession was likely to desecrate the Sabbath is menu and poor. No Sunday parade, civil, military, or religious, has ever before been interdicted in New York.

In o.der to preserve ihe rights of the people, a haiidlul ol Oraiigcuieu who desin to celebrate the anniversary of the batile ol the Boy tie, were escorted through the city 01 New York last summer by a vast military force, and much blood was sacritii-ed and many lives given as a free oblation U|HU the altar of principle. •*«.

What merit was therein the triumph of William of Orange over James 11., of the English over the Irish, of Protestantism over Roman Catholicism, that a parade in honor was entitled to protection at the sacrifice of many lives, while a simple tribute to a French Hepublican, murdered two weeks ago, is ci ts ed as a crime?

Tho authorities of New York have struck a coward's blow at the Interna tional, yel this attack will not retard the progress ol the Society in its mission for the disenihralltnent of the world neither will it stain one roseleaf upon the grave of Rossel, whose good naine will be as enduring as the land be honored.

A bill has been inir iduced in the South Carolina Legislature inakinjr it a misdemeanor for any person to call another "liar, thief, rogue, scoundrel, poltroon,or other similaropprobriotis ep"ithet.'' The next proposition iu the august L'gislature of the Palmetto State will probably be lo keep little boys frotn making fiices at grown up persons, and to punish with line and imprisonment all ladies who unkindly criticise their neighbors for wearing list years' bonnets, and for ornamenting scarlet dresses with datlVaiil trimmings.

QUITK a sens ition IMS been produced in London by the refusal of certain extreme Ri'u ilists to say prayers lor the Prince's covery in tho absence of orders 'r »m the Bishop. Ilut why should they? When men are possessed of a religion which gives no liigner ribute to God than hat of th lips and vestments, why should they not wait for sacerdotal authority b-fore prtying?

THK XXXIX Articles have '.een cut froin the course of theology at Oxford— a most telling sUn of the limes. Prof. Rawlinson's objection that "henceforth "it would be iui|ossib!e 10 distinguish "between Churchmen and Dissenters' was thrown iu his teeth as ihe strongest argument, in favor ot the action. Truly, tbe world is spinning into tbe milleuial aue.

SOME very severe preachers who l»elieve th it the worldlings should be smitten hip and thigh because they laugh and grow fat, still assert that Chicago was a burnt offering to appease tbe wrath of Gtd. Tbe religiou ol these manglers of divine lesson* has no origin in love of God or man it springs entirely frotn indigestion, and brings no better fruit than spite, malignity and bate.

THE weakest feature 01 the ''Labor Movement" is tbe fact that skilled mechanics are put forward aa the sole representatives of working m« n. This Is very ridiculous. Th movement will not deserve full success until it in eludes all laborers, regardless of class, work purfinmni, w* or wlnr.
